PLEASE HELP!!!

Biology
1 answer:
KengaRu [80]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The statements which are correct are:

-85% of the U.S. corn is GMO; modified to be resistant to herbicides.

-Technology now allows us to transfer genes between organisms of different species and even kingdoms.

- Extensive testing has been conducted on GMO-foods to ensure that there will be no adverse allergic reactions or health risks.

Explanation:

GM foods can be described as the food which is genetically modified. In simpler terms, food prepared by the introduction of a foreign gene is termed as genetically modified food.

About 92 percent of the corn produced in the U.S is genetically modified and out of it about 85 percent is genetically modified to be resistant against herbicides.

The use of GM foods was made legal after passing through various tests in the laboratory and being approved by the FDA. Up till now, any food prepared by this method is properly tested and approved By FDA before introducing it into the market.

What are the common promoter elements found in eukaryotic genes, and how are they different from enhancer elements?
V125BC [204]

Answer:

In eukaryotic cells you find core and proximal promoters.

Promotors are specific DNA sequences where transcription factors (proteins) and RNA polymerase binds to initiate transcription. Promotors are located upstream the coding sequence

Core promoters are where RNA polymersae binds and proximal promoters are where transcription factors bind.

Enhancer elements are DNA sequences where transcription factors (proteins) bind to increase the rate of expresion of an specific gene. Enhancers can be located either upstream,  downstream or thousands of nucleotids away  from the of the coding region.

Explanation:

Promoters and enhancer are key elements for controling gene regulation. Transcription begins when chromatin rearranges from a condensed state to a accesible state, this allow to transcrition factors and RNA polymerase to  bind specif DNA sequences (promotors).  Proteins bind to enhancers , this complex develops a DNA loop, so that the protein that is bound to the enhancer interacts with the RNA polymersase. When this interaction is made, the activity of the RNA polymerase is increased.
